The software release life cycle is the process of developing, testing, and distributing a software product (e.g., an operating system).It typically consists of several stages, such as pre-alpha, alpha, beta, and release candidate, before the final version, or "gold", is released to the public.
Alpha testing is simulated or actual operational testing by potential users/customers or an independent test team at the developers' site. Alpha testing is often employed for off-the-shelf software as a form of internal acceptance testing, before the software goes to beta testing. [17]

In alpha-, beta-, and gamma spectroscopy, PHA is used to measure the energy distribution of particles emitted in nuclear decay. [2] Incoming particles are absorbed by a detector medium and excite voltage pulses whose amplitudes are proportional to their energy.
AOL Desktop is back with a new Beta! AOL's premier all-in-one software is back in beta with an ALL NEW version and we want your help to test it. Join our beta by visiting the AOL Desktop beta page to learn more about this beta and how to get involved.
The page repeatedly mentions beta as the period after alpha, but there is no section on it -- the meaty sections jump from alpha to RC (post-beta). Considering the plethora of beta software (heck, it seems like there's more "beta" software these days than release software sometimes), it ought to be enough to flush out its own section.
An alpha beta filter (also called alpha-beta filter, f-g filter or g-h filter [1]) is a simplified form of observer for estimation, data smoothing and control applications. It is closely related to Kalman filters and to linear state observers used in control theory. Its principal advantage is that it does not require a detailed system model.
Detectors are designed to have one or two scintillation materials, depending on the application. "Single phosphor" detectors are used for either alpha or beta, and "Dual phosphor" detectors are used to detect both. [8] A scintillator such as zinc sulphide is used for alpha particle detection, whilst plastic scintillators are used for beta ...
